The Flexcut Carvin' Jack is the first folding multi-tool designed specifically for the needs of woodcarving. At 3.5 ounces and a closed length of 4.25", each come with a leather belt mounted sheath and a custom strop for maintaining the sharpest possible edge. Blades included: Detail Knife, Straight Gouge, Chisel, V-Scorp, Gouge Scorp, and Hook Knife. This kit includes Flexcut Slipstrop, Flexcut Gold polishing compound, and tan leather belt sheath in addition to the knife.

The "Carvin' Jack Collection" are extreme performers. Their hard carbon steel blades are hand sharpened with a razor finish at our factory and hold an edge very well. The easy carry design gives you the ability to carve anywhere - on the porch or along the trail - wherever you go.

Flexcut carving tools are a new breed of wood carving tools created to address the needs of the modern hobbyist and professional. Designed by woodcarvers for woodcarvers, Flexcut features flexible blade shafts with razor sharp cutting edges to give woodcarvers maximum control over each cut. Each blade is precision-machined from high carbon content steel for a hard cutting edge that stays sharp. Each blade is hand-sharpened at the factory and tested before shipping. The tools have ergonomically designed handles that enable long periods of carving without hand fatigue.

Leather Sheath
Leather is known for its durability and traditional appeal. When compared to Kydex it is preferred for its silence when bumped against other objects, as well as blade retention.

Aluminum Handles
A solid, lightweight material that can be molded, textured or anodized to provide better grip under extreme conditions.

The way my 401K has been taking a hit in the stock market lately, I thought I better have a back-up plan. So, I invested in this here, Carvin’Jack; may diversify into a cane bottomed rocking chair. I’ll be rockin’ on the front porch, whittlin’ spoons and trinkets for the tourist trade in my golden years : ) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> One thing they don’t mention in the product description (stated in specs), is that the blades feature a lock-back mechanism. They won’t close on your finger. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I carved the wife a letter opener with a bald eagle head perched on top, for Valentines Day, out of one of those blocks of wood that come in a cigar box (Cedar, Cypress, who knows?). It’s a full tang, spear point blade, 35-40 HRC, with bald eagle handle. Boy, she’s a lucky woman. Some wives only get chocolates, roses, and diamond jewelry for V-Day. Maybe now, she’ll appreciate my knife collecting hobby (Ha, Ha! That’s a good one). It turned out well, blades were sharp, easy to use, grip is comfortable. I stropped periodically to freshen edge. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> If you have not used Flexcut Gold polishing compound, as yet, you are in for a treat. This stuff is, “Da BOMB!” One trick I learned, on Spyderco Forums, is to put Flexcut Gold on leather lace, or a leather thong to sharpen a Spyder edge (serrated edge, to those uninitiated in the Spyder Cult). I believe that technique would work well with the curved blades on the Carvin’ Jack. But, get yourself a leather paddle strop and some Flexcut Gold (both available at KnifeCenter.com), and use them to put a finishing edge on all of your knives/tools. You’ll wonder where it has been all your life. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I sure wish someone had gifted me a Carvin’ Jack when I was a kid. Just think of all the waterfowl decoys, balsa fishing lures, fish decoys, fish & wildlife figurines I would have carved by now. It may be a little pricey, but investing in a Carvin’ Jack for your kids, or grand-kids, could pay big dividends in their future. As always, thank you Knife Center for the speedy delivery, excellent customer service, and the great cutlery.
